COLLEGE CORNER: Millersville's Mayza tosses two-hitter

Kelsey Metzler (Perkiomen Valley) scored the go-ahead goal with 1:37 left to lift the 14th-ranked Bloomsburg University women's lacrosse team to an 11-9 victory over the Lake Erie Storm Saturday afternoon.

Millersville junior Tim Mayza (Upper Perkiomen) had a great day on the mound for the Marauders.

Unfortunately for him, it was only the second-greatest performance of the day for a Millersville pitcher.

Mayza allowed just two hits in a complete-game shutout of Clarion, striking out three as the Marauders won, 7-0.

In the second game of the doubleheader, teammate Chris Murphy threw a perfect game for Millersville.
